Early Voting Still Heavily Favoring Dems
By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2008 Election, Barack, Electoral College, McCain, Video, VotingChuck Todd and Charlie Cook on Hardball explaining it all.
Basically, Todd hedges his bets, but Cook comes straight out and says, “Boy, it sure as hell looks over.”
And to that point about early voting, here’s more from WSJ…
Almost 11 million voters already have cast ballots in the 2008 elections, and Democrats seem to have cast the majority of them, according to incomplete information compiled by George Mason University Professor Michael McDonald.McDonald’s Web site, which he says he will update continuously between now and Election Day, reports that 2.1 million Florida voters have cast early ballots, with registered Democrats casting 45% of them, Republicans casting 40% and independents casting 15%.
Likewise, registered Democrats account for 55% of the 97,000 ballots already cast in New Mexico; 55% of 1.2 million ballots cast in North Carolina and 50.1% of 300,000 cast in Iowa. Registered Republicans cast less than one-third of the ballots in those three states.
In Nevada, registered Democrats accounted for 55% of 211,000 votes already cast in Clark County and 52% of 51,000 cast in Washoe County, the state’s two large population centers.
In Colorado, registered Democrats account for 39% of the early votes, Republicans account for 38% and independents for 23%.
Personally, I think it’s over.

Matthews doesn’t know what Karma is, Karma is action and reaction, basically the actions of the Republicans and McCain and Bush are coming back to them and boy are they going to suffer
